You might remember the maternity session recently with my step-sis?  Well, here is the newest addition to the family.  Baby J made his entrance into the world a few weeks too early so we had to wait awhile for his session.  Everyone is home and doing well now and you can see Baby J is doing awesome!

I think this was my most stylish family this year.  I love when my clients bring great cloths and props to our shoot.  They look like a Ralph Lauren ad:

I love that Ada gets photos of her and her boys done every year.  This will be the third year that I've photographed them.  Kids don't need to be little to record your time with them.  I need to remember this myself.

It's so great taking photos with a family of actors.  Every time my camera clicked everyone struck another pose. The only thing better would be shooting Tyra Banks herself!

Lily's Bat Mitzvah is coming up soon so we got together recently to get some portraits done of her and her family, minus big sis, plus one dog, who was not pleased with the attention at all.

We did a series of funny shots that Lily's mom has an idea for.  Can't wait to see what she does with them.

By the way, you need to check out mom Kelly's business, Easy Lunch Boxes, for some awesome earth friendly lunch boxes!

Kelly Lester Says:

Karen - You captured us perfectly! We love these portraits because they're alive and not 'posed' (and we look so good!). So excited to be working with you and your amazing talents. Can't wait for the big day! Many thanks from all of us :)

This is the third time I've had the opportunity to photograph the Bergman's this year. I first met Efrem when he called for headshots for his web site.  He is an amazing composer and soon after became my daughter's piano teacher for the summer.  We then did a photoshoot with his daughter who is a dancer.  Mom finally got in on the act recently when we did the whole family on a beautiful, slightly muddy, morning!

If you have been thinking about piano lessons for someone in your life, please consider Efrem.  He is great!
